Congressional Dental Care offers the TeethXpress procedure in our Rockville, MD dental office. This dental implant-supported denture lets you get new teeth in a day. During one visit, our dentists can remove damaged teeth, place implants, and secure a denture. This option is popular for people who are missing all their teeth and want a quick way to improve their smiles and chewing ability.
Teeth-in-a-Day implants are better for your oral health versus regular dentures. They support your facial structure and replace missing tooth roots, which will prevent bone loss. This procedure needs careful pre-treatment planning and healthy bone tissue for lasting results.
Dr. Ali Sarkarzadeh and Dr. Sina Farzin work together to provide quality implants. We do every step of the Teeth-in-a-Day procedure in our Rockville office. With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Farzin handles the surgical implantation phase in one treatment.
Teeth-In-A-Day: What to Expect
First, our dentists will perform a complete check-up. They will look at your teeth, gums, and bone structure to see if you can get dental implants. If you qualify, they will create a personalized treatment plan. Using advanced 3D digital software, we make sure your bone structure is ready for a long-lasting fix for missing teeth.
Next is the surgical phase. First, Dr. Farzin will remove any damaged teeth. Then, he will place the dental implants and attach the abutments. You will need 4 to 6 implants to secure your denture.
Then Dr. Farzin will secure the denture to the abutments with special screws. You can use your current denture or get a new one before the procedure.
The entire procedure takes about three to four hours, but this can vary. After the procedure, we will give you pain medicine and a strict dental hygiene routine to follow during healing. This cleaning and care is crucial for the long-term health of your new teeth.
Benefits of Teeth-In-A-Day

Frequently Asked Questions
Are you a good candidate for Teeth-In-A-Day?
You qualify if you are missing several teeth or all your teeth and have a strong, healthy jawbone. This procedure is a quick and effective way to get new teeth in just one visit.
Being in good general health helps with healing after the procedure. If you have chronic health issues, you might need to manage them first. Healthy gums, or the ability to get gum disease under control, also improves your chances of success.
Following care instructions after the procedure is key for healing and long-term results. If you can commit to this, you are a better candidate. If you’re tired of traditional dentures that slip or cause discomfort, Teeth-in-a-Day offers a more stable and comfortable option. These factors ensure that the Teeth-in-a-Day procedure will work well and be beneficial for you.
Can I eat normally right after getting Teeth-In-A-Day implants?
After getting Teeth-In-A-Day implants, follow a special soft diet to help your mouth heal and the implants settle in. Right after the procedure, eat only soft foods and avoid chewing on the implant site. As your mouth heals and you adjust to the implants, you can slowly start eating a wider range of foods. Always follow your dentist’s advice on what to eat after the procedure for the best results.
Will I experience pain during or after the procedure?
No, you will not feel pain during the Teeth-In-A-Day procedure because the dentist uses local anesthesia to numb your mouth. The dentist will make sure you are comfortable and pain-free throughout the treatment. Most patients don’t feel pain during the surgery.
After the procedure, you might feel some discomfort or mild pain as your mouth heals. Your dentist will give you pain medication and aftercare instructions to help manage any discomfort. Most patients find that the pain is manageable and goes away within a few days.
Will my speech be affected after getting Teeth-In-A-Day implants?
Your speech might be a little different right after getting Teeth-In-A-Day implants as you adjust to the new feeling. This is usually temporary. As you adjust to the implants and practice speaking, your speech should return to normal. The secure fit of the implants can even improve speech compared to regular dentures since they won’t slip and cause speech issues.
